Privacy Policy
Last updated: July 6, 2026
The short version: Swish runs entirely on your iPhone. Your photos and their details are never uploaded, copied off your device, or shared with us or anyone else. There are no accounts, no tracking, and no analytics.
Who we are
Swish ("the app," "we," "us") is a photo-cleaning app for iPhone that helps you review your camera roll and free up storage. This policy explains what the app does and does not do with your information.
Your photos stay on your device
To let you review and clean your library, Swish asks for permission to access your Photos. It uses this access only to show your photos inside the app and to remove the ones you choose to delete.
Your photos, videos, and their metadata are read and processed only on your iPhone. They are never transmitted to our servers, uploaded to the cloud, or sent to any third party. We have no servers that receive your photo content, and we could not see your photos even if we wanted to.
When you cut a photo, Swish asks iOS to delete it. iOS always shows you its own confirmation first, and deleted items go to your "Recently Deleted" album for 30 days, exactly as with Apple's Photos app. You stay in control the entire time.
Information we do not collect
- We do not require an account, email address, or sign-in.
- We do not use analytics or usage-tracking tools.
- We do not use advertising, and we do not track you across apps or websites.
- We do not sell, rent, or share personal information — because we do not collect it.
Purchases and subscriptions
Swish offers an optional paid upgrade ("Swish Pro"). Purchases are handled by Apple through the App Store. Apple processes your payment; we never see your credit-card number or billing details. Apple's handling of your information is governed by Apple's Privacy Policy.
To manage your subscription status and unlock Pro features across your devices, Swish uses RevenueCat, a subscription-management service. When you make or restore a purchase, RevenueCat receives your App Store purchase receipt and generates a random, anonymous identifier for your app installation. This is used solely to confirm whether your purchase is active. It is not linked to your name, email, or your photos. See RevenueCat's Privacy Policy for details.
Diagnostics you choose to share
If your device is set to share crash and usage diagnostics with developers, Apple may provide us anonymized crash reports through App Store Connect. These contain no photo content and no personal identifiers. You can turn this off in iOS Settings under Privacy & Security → Analytics & Improvements.
Children
Swish is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone, including children.
Changes to this policy
If we update this policy, we will revise the "Last updated" date above and post the new version on this page. Continued use of the app after a change means you accept the updated policy.
